darjeeling got better on second watch. life aquatic i didnt really bother to watch again. darjeeling at first seemed like wes anderson doing his best impression of wes anderson-- in many of the humorous moments, where u smile more than laugh, something about the pacing, the still close framed shots rich with quirky ironic little details -- these moments seemed to be trying to do royal tenenbaums humor again, with less success... the points where baldwin is narrating and the beautiful futura text comes on the screen to label the item of interest being described; this trick made trt charming and smart, slightly offbeat-- and were never as successful in darjeeling. but in watching darjeeling again, i knew what to expect/not expect, and i was able to focus on the tender, endearingly flawed relationships among the three suit-wearing brothers (u have to suspend disbelief and pretend the three could possibly be brothers).. loved the scene where they pass around the drugs they picked up in town. owen wilson being so overtly lovey to the two others who are reluctant to emote... the bored nonchalance of all three... and the pretty indian chick on the train... i guess i discovered a lot to love.

You really need another avitar. The Coen brothers are brilliant, hilarious, and completely original. You have none of these qualities. Might I suggest: Michael Bay, Brett Ratner, or whoever the fuck directs all of Martin Lawrence's comedies or the auteurs behind the Scary Movie franchise.
